Answer:

Slope of AB will  be -5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: AB is parallel to CD and the slope of CD si -5.

To find: The slope of AB.

Solution: It is given that AB is parallel to CD and the slope of CD si -5.

We know that the slope of the two parallel lines is always same and will never intersect.

Thus, if AB is parallel to CD and the slope of CD is -5, then the slope of AB will also be -5.

Thus, slope of AB will  be -5.

Danny is thinking of buying a gym membership. He has two gums available to choose from. Gym A has a $35 initial fee and costs $4
Ivanshal [37]
For this, all you have to do is create equations where all you have to do is change the x value. The equation for gym A would be 35 + 42x, where x is the number of months he has the membership, and the first number is the initial fee. The equation for gym B would be 65 + 36x, following the same rules. Now all you have to do is set both of these equations equal to each other:
65+36x=35+42x
Solving this equation results in x=5, which means that he has to have the memberships for 5 months for them to be equal. Now just plug that in to one side of the equation to get the amount he has to spend:
65+36(5) = $245

When Sam gave Clarissa 105 chocolates, Clarissa had 5 times as many chocolates as Sam. They had 504 chocolates altogether. How m
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

315 chocolate

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Sam's chocolate be S

Let Clariss's chocolate be C

When Sam gave Clarissa 105 chocolates, Clarissa had 5 times as many chocolates as Sam.

This can be written as:

C = 5S

The sum of their chocolate is 504 i.e

S + C = 504

Now, let us determine the chocolate of Clarissa after receiving 105 chocolate from Sam. This can be obtained as follow:

S + C = 504

But: C = 5S

S + 5S = 504

6S = 504

Divide both side by 6

S = 504/6

S = 84.

C = 5S = 5 x 84 = 420

Therefore, Clarissa have 420 chocolate after receiving 105 chocolate from Sam.

Now, to know the amount of chocolate that Clarissa has at first, we simply subtract 105 from the present amount that Clarissa have. This is illustrated below:

Amount of chocolate that Clarissa has a first = 420 – 105 = 315

Therefore, Clarissa had 315 chocolate at first.
